Abstract

The high altar and side altars were funded by father Walenty Bańkowski, while he was the parish priest of the parish in Biórków Wielki in the years 1777-1801. In the main area of the altar, the painting "Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary" (mentioned in episcopal visitation records from 1747 and 1783) was re-mounted Originally, classicistic vases were placed over the altar gates. The altar, as a whole, is an example of the late implementation of the Late Baroque trend in Cracovian wood carving of the late 18th century.
